"Throwing frag!"
"Get ammo, here!"
"Alright buddy, you'll live! Now get back in the fight!"
"I'm right here! Please shoot me!"

Ok so that last one isn't in the game, but it may as well be. Are there any plans to remove these and similar audible shout-outs from being broadcast to the enemy?

I don't know about that.
I hate it when I have to rearm and I know I'm yelling but I think IRL there is a lot of yelling during combat.
Also..... I think it's one of the "hardcoded" elements they just have to work around.

i should probably take the english only option off in my settings as its hard to know who is around you sometimes, but then i dont speak arabic or mandarin so when playing on those teams i wouldnt know what was going on.

its a tough one. (maybe i should learn the key phrases from those languages used in the game, or alternatively i could play with an interpreter sitting next to me)

At least IRL one would have the option to yell or not. If a solder throws a nade onto a rooftop to defeat a sniper, I doubt he would let him know it's coming.

Hey, that's how I'd do it! Then again, I'm no soldier

You'll probably learn Arabian and Chinese phrases after a while. It's worth for the issue mentioned above not to mention that pure English language steals the realism. Imagine a formidable PLA soldier's demostration of appreciation in yankee accent! "Thanks, I owe you one!" Not likely...

Ye, you get used to it. Have been playing a long time with english voip only. Since january 2007 (or so) I have it turned off, so I hear all languages. Can be annoying at first, but you'll find it very, very useful after a while (speech indeed gives away enemy presence).

I've been listening to the chines/mec since i bought the game.

It's stupid when a chinese or mec man comes to you in american english.

New players that don't use the English Only are going to be completely lost, as we've gotten rid of the text accompanying most voice commands.

Im fine with the hole "Frag in!" thing because its quite likely you'd shout that when throwing one.

"Alright pall, your Ok!" I think is a little silly.
Maybe something more distcreet like a hushed "Clear!" and the revived just splutters to conciousness.

Hmmm.....Ammo here is a hard one. It does give away your position but then again it helps big time. On forest terrain maps with long grass you may find it hard to find the ammo boxes without the little ammo signature. The yelling person makes it easyer to destinguish whome exactly is throwing it and where they are. I'd say keep it then.

With the text not appearing for some voice commands, I find it fine. I basicly have learnt to undertand all the commands now(but i cant repeat them aloud for some reason lol).

...mongol...

Grenade in MEC is ~ Uhngde!

why would you not know whats going on? it types it up in English on your screen. i dont know those languages myself but i have never been confused, i find it really ridiculous that you cant figure it out

Watch on the mini map and you will see what the guy spotted

when you are flaing/tanking , you dont have time to check the minimap to see if the guy say "tank" or "soldier", iwant those text back .

Sure you do, I manage to do it all the time without fuss.
Although I also know what the phrases mean....

LOL that you find it ridiculous, I didnt expect such a spirited response.

but yes, i do, so i put it on english only. (because i cant see the text in english)

but i could learn to recognise the phrases if i put some effort in. (im being lazy about it basically)

if you put english you wont hear the difference between enemmy and friendly
